Turning Point in AI - Leaders Rally for a Natural AI Initiative

Audio Narration of.the article, Turning Point in AI 🚀 Leaders Rally for a Natural AI Initiative by Denise Holt on Spatial Web AI Podcast. #ActiveInferenceAI #futureofai #karlfriston A pivotal roundtable discussion held by the Boston Global Forum, the Active Inference Institute, and the Neuropsychiatry and Society Program on December 12, 2023, marked a significant turning point in our understanding and development of artificial intelligence. This group of leaders came together to to discuss a letter signed by 25 neuroscientists, biologists, physicists, policy makers, AI researchers, entrepreneurs, and directors of research labs on a joint initiative proposing a radical rethinking of AI’s trajectory, advocating for a model of AI that is fundamentally different from the data-intensive, computationally expensive systems that dominate today’s landscape. They propose that rather than giant neural networks, we need AI systems modeled after natural organisms - displaying key attributes like autonomy, adaptability, and goal-directedness. Their meeting signifies growing momentum behind a new approach to AI called Active Inference, developed by world renowned neuroscientist, Dr. Karl Friston, Chief Science Officer at VERSES AI, that leads to more transparent, ethical, and beneficial intelligent systems. Active Inference AI is inspired by physics and the biology of life itself, and it is already being advanced by VERSES AI, currently in Beta for their Genius platform with partners like NASA, Volvo, and others. Explore the future of AI with Active Inference and gain insights into this revolutionary approach!
